So if this is true, Vivek really thinks Hield will at least be as big a star player as Cousins. Basically if no "shooter" was offered, Vivek would've said no till the end.
Honestly, none of the rumored deals were good enough to get the best center in the world who is only 26 yrs old and loves the city he was playing for. But we ended up picking one of the worse.
LA espn radio was talking about the Lakers willing to include both Randle and Russell + a later 1st rounder they were trying to get for Lou Williams. Russell as this point is > Hield. Randle will likely be better than anyone Vlade will draft with the Pelicans pick.
Guys all over the national sports radio this morning were just mockign Vlade's interview line by line on how dumb he was to actually not know that agents will try to block trades to protect their client and their pocket.
